Your Favorite Cover Arts!

That cover (Ico) is extremely unorginal. It is almost a carbon copy of this other piece of art. The name escapes me at the moment... but it is very famous...

It ain't Dali. The guy does surreal stuff. It's someone else.

oh well. for some reason, the ico art reminds me of dali../ it's also rather surreal. ..though not to the same extent.

salvador dali is pretty neat. I went to his museum in florida. It was pretty awesome.

I never even knew about how the pic of Kyle Reese and Solid Snake. They look almost exactly the same. Weird.

I really liked Vagrant Story's cover art.

I like this version a little better:

Ico's cover was based on the art of Giorgio De Chirico, the co-founder of the Metaphysia school of art, a precursor to Surrealism. His work typically involved Italian plazas with odd lighting, enlongated shadows, and huge leaps of perspective. Some beautiful works.
